TheyWore scary dark outfits, grew their hair into these eerie "devilock"Things that hung menacingly over their faces 24-7, powdered their faces white,Drew dark make-up rings around their eyes in a very zombie-like fashion, and,Most importantly, threatened and beat up a lot of their fans over the years!Okay, this is only rumor talking, but you know rumor!!!Matter who you ask, though, is that Glenn Danzig has a very distinctiveOutlook on the world. Danzig penned was based on an old horror movie! WithTitles like "Spinal Remains," "Teenagers From Mars," and "Night Of The LivingDead," these cats immediately ripped to shreds any possibility of beingTaken seriously, but prevented their bloody tales of gore from rendering themA harmless novelty act by dressing and playing the part - to a T. Initially, they sounded like a fuzzed-out '50sAct (like, say, the Ramones, for example!!!) with one key difference - almostEvery song that this Mr. And they have no respect for the status quo.This popular punk rock combo. The ones who see things differently. The round pegs in the square holes.
TitlesInclude "TV Casualty," "Angelfuck," and "American Nightmare." Enjoy oneToday! No, see, about half of these songs were meant for an album calledStatic Age that just never came out. TheProduction puts so much emphasis (understandably) on Danzig's voice that theMusic becomes kinda like a strange creepy-sounding pop background for hisGrotesquery ("Some kinda love / Some kinda hate / The maggots in the eye ofGoth? No, the distorted guitars and upbeat rhythmsMake it clear that this stuff is still intended as some sort ofPunk rock music, but it is awfully B-movie for the otherwise"political" punk genre (such as it was back in those early Clash days). See, back at this point, they didn't reallySound that much like The Ramones because the music was so darn weird. They later reformed without Glenn Danzig and released the worst music ever created on the face of the earth.Although this compilation thingy contains tracksRecorded across a span of three and a half years ('77-'81), it is still very clearly theSound of "early Misfits." The songs are uptempo, but not speedcore - each oneTakes its time to develop an evil pop groove (like a more morbid versionOf the Sex Pistols), and the overall tone is extremely spooky and dungeon-like,Thanks to a heavy reverberating bass groan and guitars thatSound like a vacuum cleaner. They were one of the greatest punk bands ever.No hang on. No matter which one you get, it's gonna kickYour ass.
Wilson)Who can argue with a chorus like "Hybrid Moments"? Or how about the sinisterLegacy of Brutality is the first Misfits album I ever heard, and itConvinced me to seek out more.Glenn Danzig has a way with catchy choruses"american nightmare" is the best song of legacy and one of theBest overall. What an introduction!!!! Although it's not asUpbeat as Walk Among Us is, I think I like it a little more especiallyThe last half of side one and all of side two."Where Eagles Dare" (Ms. It was also the first 'punk'Album I ever bought.
"static age" is fucking awesome. "Angelfuck", "Who Killed Marilyn?".they're all good! This isAn album where you can just sit back and listen to and actually justConcentrate on the music and still be entertained for god knows how (Dean Reis)The band is awesome. SureThese songs aren't complex, or they don't do any bad ass solos, the beautyOf these songs are that they follow simple formats and simple chordPatterns but the songs still kick my ass anyway! How the hell can you goWrong with the chorus line in "Where Eagles Dare"? How can you get sick ofListening to "She"? It's only like a minute and I can listen to it over andOver again. "American nightmare" showsThe first Misfits' songs I ever heard was on Legacy of Brutality. Glen has got his Elvis voice in full lock and load and asideFrom the crappy production, a must best non-greatest hits album they made.
I am a huge misfits fan and i was wondering what you think aboutThe new release of Static Age? if you reviewed it, i thinkWould be dropped down to a 5 or 6 because how crappy it sounds.Glenn's vocals are just hammered by all that hideous groaning guitar andBass.but don't get me wrong, hideous groaning guitar and bass soundsCool on earth ad because that was murder/death/kill put onto tape, itIs supposed to sound crazy and distorted. "American Nightmare" is a pointlessParody that's only funny the first time you listen to it. It's still fuckin album rules! The early morbid punk provides the perfect background forGlenn's incredible vocal strength.definitely one of the best frontmen ever."Hybrid Moments" and "Where Eagles Dare" plow through everything in theirPath, "Come Back" is creepy and immersing (blows my mind every time I listenTo it with lights out and headphones on), and "Some Kinda Hate" is killer.I always stop it at track 12, though.
He sounded like a pissed off adolescent when in fact, he wasAbout 22. I listen to danzig I-IV and he is sortaCrooning and it doesn't come out the same was as when he was in theMisfits. Glenn's voiceIs just utterly amazing and i think the best parts are his "rawness" andThe "swagger" in his voice. But with the cleaner guitar on SA, songs like "hybridMoments" and "come back" and "last caress" and "angelfuck" become someOf the greatest songs ever to come outta rock-n-roll.
I'd give it a (Rowana Condry)Legacy is a great collection, the production is bad though,The versions of these songs on the newer Static Age CD are much better. Most of it should really be listened to on theBut this is the only place to find "American Nightmare" and "Who KilledMarilyn?" on CD (besides a boot, of course). "AmericanNightmare" is worth the price of the CD, and this does have some of myFavorite songs.
He wasn't even as big as I thought he was,He was short but buff and my jaw hurt for a good week,It was the greatest experience of my life, only actually seeing him do American Nightmare on stageLegacy of brutality rocks. I askedGlenn Danzig why he didn't play American Nightmare after a small show he did with the Danzig bandYears ago, he just looked at me with a half smile pulledBack his fist and knocked me to the ground with a quick jab. Plus, theVersion of of the classic "She" is a little better. American nightmare is only available on Legacy, so go out and buy it.
